Why is the unit price per disc only changing in small increments with larger order size?
Since the material costs and the cycle time for the precision molding and surface print per disc is constant, the only variable factor within the entire manufacturing processes – creating master a metal mold (stamper) – injection molding (replication) – surface print – is the cost of creating the stamper and the setup times for replication and surface printing. By dividing this cost by the unit quantity to be produced, the respective lower per unit cost is then applied to the total order quantity.
